Background The work situation for first-line managers in elderly care is complex and challenging. Little is known about these managers' work situation from a structural and psychological empowerment perspective. Aim To describe first-line managers' experiences of their work situation in elderly care from a structural and psychological empowerment perspective. Method Interviews from 14 female first-line managers were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Results The theme described the managers' work situation as It's not easy, but it's worth it. In the four subthemes, the managers described their work in terms of Enjoying a meaningful job, A complex and demanding responsibility that allows great authority within set boundaries, Supported by other persons, organisational preconditions and confidence in their own abilities and Lacking organisational preconditions, but developing strategies for dealing with the situations. Conclusion The managers described having various amounts of access to structural empowerment and experienced a feeling of meaning, competence, self-determination and impact, that is, psychological empowerment in their work. Implications for nursing management It is vital that first-line managers have access to organisational support. Therefore, upper management and first-line managers need to engage in continuous dialogue to customize the support given to each first-line manager.
